59 Side Effects Of The Medicine

After the last set of massages, Bei Shuo straightened her back and shook her sore hands. She pulled the thin blanket over Mu Ci and sat cross-legged on the carpet in front of the bed. This way, it was easier to chat with Mu Ci.

Mu Ci reached out and tucked Bei Shuo’s hair behind her ear. He said softly, “You’ve worked hard.”

Bei Shuo smiled sweetly. “Brother, do you feel better today?

Mu Ci nodded. “Every day is better than the day before.”

There was a little pride on Bei Shuo’s face. “I’ve recorded all the changes in your condition. Master will definitely praise me the next time we meet!”

Mu Ci looked at this bright girl and felt again that it was good to be alive!

Bei Shuo habitually pulled his wrist over to take his pulse. She looked at his tongue and frowned.

“What’s wrong?” Mu Ci wasn’t worried about his health. He felt very good. He just couldn’t bear to see Bei Shuo frown.

“The poison of the Snow Pill hasn’t completely dissipated. I still need to continue acupuncture for a few more days,” Bei Shuo muttered to herself.

Mu Ci was puzzled. “Isn’t the Snow Pill a life-saving medicine? Why is it poisonous?”

Bei Shuo placed his hand back under the blanket and explained patiently, “There are two sides to everything. It’s the same with medicine. One side of it is medicine, while the other is poison. The more a medicine can treat an emergency and save lives, the more harmful it usually is to the body. The Snow Pill is an example. No matter what illness it is, as long as you take the Snow Pill immediately, you can recover. However, you have to start cleaning up the poison of the Snow Pill after you recover. Otherwise, if it stays in your body, there will be other unpredictable consequences.”

“So, you’ve always wanted to know how Mu En’s health is?” Mu Ci understood.

Bei Shuo hesitated for a moment. “How should I put it? There shouldn’t be any problems with his body, at least not now. He’s still young, but he might have an abnormality in some aspects. For example, he might be obsessed with something and be unable to extricate himself. This will cause his body to erode bit by bit. This might happen early or late.”

“Like women,” Mu Ci said.

Bei Shuo nodded gently.

Mu Ci did not speak and fell into deep thought.

Bei Shuo bit her lip. “I’ve never seen Master’s patients before. I heard these from Master. Mu En isn’t our patient. He took Snow Pills but didn’t undergo our post-treatment detoxification treatment. I’m just guessing, but I’m not sure.”

Mu Ci got up and wanted to lean against the headboard. Bei Shuo hurriedly stuffed a pillow behind him.

Mu Ci held Bei Shuo’s hand and made her sit on the bed. She leaned against him for a long time before he said softly, “Mu En does like women. When he was 15 years old, he seduced and raped a female classmate in his class because he liked her. After that, my mother came forward and gave the girl a sum of money. The matter was left unsettled. After that, Mu En couldn’t stop himself. No one around him was spared. I never thought that he was poisoned. I just thought that it was a matter of character. Bei Shuo, can he be saved?”

There was an imperceptible pain in Mu Ci’s voice.

Bei Shuo shook his head gently. “Brother, do you know that spoiling children is equivalent to killing them? Madam Mu’s treatment of Mu En will only make him worse. The consequences will be unimaginable.”

Mu Ci said nothing.

One was his biological mother, and the other was his biological brother, but they all treated him as if they were not family. His words were insignificant and useless.

Mu Ci patted her hand. “Don’t think about it. I’ll get Liu Ming to watch over him. Let’s do our best and leave it to fate.”

Other than nodding, what else could Bei Shuo do?

Mu Ci didn’t tell Bei Shuo that things weren’t as simple as he said.

Mu En was a good boy in front of his grandfather and the elders of his clan. In fact, his private life was extremely messy.

Her mother had been helping him clean up the mess behind him. She had used money to settle those girls. This was also why her mother did not let Mu En get too close to young ladies of equal social status. Any problem that money could solve was not a problem. Those small families or women who wanted to get close to Mu En for money were easy to take care of.

However, provoking the daughters of those noble families was not something that could be resolved with money. Moreover, his reputation would be damaged because of this. Mu En was already the predetermined successor. The most important thing was his reputation.

Hence, the money his mother had spent on Mu En all these years was uncountable.

Mu Ci had been watching coldly. He was not from the same world as them.

Mu Ci reached out and pulled Bei Shuo into his arms. Bei Shuo immediately found a comfortable spot and said in a daze, “Let me lean on you to sleep for a while.”

Mu Ci didn’t say anything. As Bei Shuo took a deep and steady breath, he pondered quietly.
